Not that I doubt that having my system clock set to a date 8 months prior to the date of files in cvs might cause a problem - but I'm curious about the details. If you can even point me at a URL and I'll read for myself - I'm just curious. If that was the problem (buildworld happenning as I type) then thank you and my apologies for the oversight. New system, didn't bother to make sure the BIOS date was right and ntp wasn't yet setup. Thanks, Aaron
